Every Day Is Babylon, 2022
Hardcover
10 years in the making, Every Day Is Babylon takes us on a journey through 16 countries on 5 continents.
Our ever changing world is full of complex situations and emotions. Tremendous joy and incredible suffering surrounds us. As I walk through the world’s streets, I constantly watch and wait for moments that express the happiness or the complexity of one's existence... the smile on a face, a gesture of the hand, the slight movements that express elation or tribulation in life. Each day is someone’s best day, but also the worst of another. We go back and forth on the waves of time, experiencing joy, sadness, happiness, strength and weakness, the definition of the human experience. This extreme contrast shapes this body of work.
